HONESTAV Is on His Way to the Top

HONESTAV just dropped his highly-anticipated song “I’d Rather Overdose,” which has been blowing up on TikTok for the past few weeks. Blending the genres of folk, indie and pop, the rising artist has found his lane and started to stride through it.

With lyrics detailing heart-wrenching moments of HONESTAV’s life, it is impossible to listen without feeling real emotion through the entirety of “I’d Rather Overdose.” Lyrics like “If only you love me like you loved getting high / I can’t let you go / I tried but I always know / I wish you was holding me close / Can’t be without you, I’d rather overdose,”effortlessly paint a picture of incredibly complex situations that have altered the life of HONESTAV from the start.

While HONESTAV originally picked up traction for his comedy sketches, he’s launched himself into the music world with over 60 releases since 2021. Of these releases, “I’d Rather Overdose” has undoubtedly stirred up the most attention for the rising artist. Since dropping the song three days ago, the song has racked up well over 200k streams across platforms, speaking to the true momentum HONESTAV has right now.

Looking forward, expect the multi-talented creator to continue picking up steam as he teases and releases more music. 2023 was a huge year for HONESTAV in terms of getting more eyes on his artist project, PLAYDATE. projects that 2024 will be even bigger.
